The BFF Pledge

(I'm taking the

Best Friend Forever Pledge) (The BFF

Pledge) (Here

is why) They say one in three women in the United States

will face the dark

A shadow of violence that leaves a deep mark

One hundred and forty lives lost in the world

every day

To the hands of the ones who should have kept them safe

We don't close our eyes,

we don't look away

We stand in the light and we're learning to say...

And if you have children,

hear the truth in this sound

They see what you see

when the walls come down

It steals their peace,

it teaches them fear They grow up believing

that pain lives right here

Break the cycle,

run to the door You are worth more than this,

you're meant for so much more

So we make this promise,

a vow to the world For every woman,

every boy, every girl To heal the body,

to heal the mind And leave the hurt

and the violence behind.
